2021 AFCON: Saido Mane late penalty sealed victory for Senegal against Zimbabwe (Highlights) 2021-2022

Sadio Mane scored a last-minute penalty to give Senegal a 1-0 win over Zimbabwe in their opening fixture at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations.

It was an end-to-end start at the Stade Omnisports de Bafoussam and the two teams' defences were difficult to break for the majority of the game.

In the 94th minute of stoppage time, Senegal were awarded a penalty after Kelvin Madzongwe blocked Pape Gueye's shot with his hand and the referee immediately pointed to the penalty spot.

The Zimbabwe midfielder was consequently handed a yellow card while Mane stepped forward to convert the resulting kick and he rightfully sent goalkeeper Mhari in the wrong direction to give the 2019 finalists maximum points.
